Dear SSET,
Have you ever compared this year TN rainfall with TN NEM normal rainfall. For your information upto 29.11.2009 TN has received 10% above NORMAL rainfall for this NEM season. That too the rainfall is wide spread baring few NW interior districts.
EL NINO Southern Oscillation [ENSO] is one of tele- connections our NEM is having. Some times it is very prominent; some time its in significant. There is no reduction in the number of rainy days for TN. But upper air at 925 hPa to 850 hPa level is relatively warmer in most part of the year.This anomaly is to be studied.
Further I will let you know in appropriate time when bad weather related to this phenomenon is occurring.
---------- More about coming up showers --------------
NE winds brought rain in many parts of Tiruvarur district and selected coastal locations in Nagai, Ramanad, and Pudukottai districts. [29.11.2009/0830 hrs IST].
Now NE winds of the order 10 to 15 knots are blowing from NE direction from surface to 850 hPa. This may bring smaller showers to day in Puducherry, coastal Villupuram and Kanchipuram districts. However the High pressure hovered over central India at 850 hPa is prohibiting clouds developments

One among the veterans of COLA site is an INDIAN who, sometime back worked for INDIA [IMD]. IITM site like MOL will give more informative and useful data. Models made a digital divide among [young / old] meteorologists and Numerical Weather Predication [NWP]is going to rule future.Youngs have digital capacity where as the olds are of experience. There should be a proper mix.

No we are not blaming Tamil Nadu. ElNino is not bringing vigorous NE monsoon. Why is it so? Generally it is observed that south india is becoming more and more dry with less rainy days. Take example of Bangalore it is extremely hot and temperature touches 39-40 degrees in summer, we don't see any rains here. But places like Maharashtra, Gujarat are receiving extremely good rains (5-6 months) of rain.

Western Disturbance ??
The western disturbance represents a trough of lower pressure (marked by anti-clockwise winds, ascending motion of air, presence of moisture and clouds) that warms up the atmosphere. This can help reverse the cold conditions at a given point of time.

Colder conditions set to continue in North, central parts
Mercury is seeking new lows in North India as cold north-westerlies continued to blow across the international border on Friday.
An India Meteorological Department (IMD) update said that the cold to increasingly colder conditions are set to prevail over north, northwest and parts of central India until November 30.
ANTI-CYCLONIC PUSH
A seasonal anti-cyclone (high-pressure area marked by clockwise winds, sinking air motion and clear skies) sitting smack over central India in the higher levels of atmosphere has been boosting the flow of westerlies to northwesterlies.
This anti-cyclone is seen lying extended to the east over Southeast Asia and China as well as into the Far-east over the Pacific facilitating the northern hemisphere winter.
What would expectedly reverse, if ever slightly, is the arrival of a western disturbance over northwest India by November, a remainder circulation from a large weather system that dropped heavy rains over West Asia on Thursday.
The western disturbance represents a trough of lower pressure (marked by anti-clockwise winds, ascending motion of air, presence of moisture and clouds) that warms up the atmosphere. This can help reverse the cold conditions at a given point of time.
Western disturbances often feature induced cyclonic circulations as they drift into northwest India and are known to help whip up additional moisture from the Arabian Sea to rain down over the hills and plains.
The IMD update on Friday said that maximum temperatures were above normal over parts of peninsular India, Madhya Pradesh and below normal over parts of Punjab and Bihar.
Minimum temperatures were below normal over many parts of east India, Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab. They were above normal over remaining parts of the country except over extreme south peninsular India where they are near normal.
SLIGHT FALL
No significant change in minimum temperatures is expected over the Indo-Gangetic plains during the next five days except a slight fall on Saturday and slight rise from Monday coinciding with the arrival of the western disturbance.
Meanwhile, towards the south, Thursday's cyclonic circulation over southeast Bay of Bengal persisted and is likely to move slowly west-northwestwards (towards Sri Lanka-India coasts). The weak northeast monsoon conditions are likely to continue over south peninsular India during the next three days as well.
But things may begin to look different from Monday with the west-northwestward-bound cyclonic circulation expected to impact coastal Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka.
According to the US National Centres for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), the wet session marked by mainly widely separated rain or thundershowers may hold until December 4.
Its outlook for the December 5 to 13 too shows a calibrated rise in activity over the peninsular seas with a flare-up indicated close to the Tamil Nadu coast.
